Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and Thorne) novel Chapter 122
Chapter 122
ven though Vernon whispered the party invitation to Charlene while avoiding eye contact, she quickly picked
up on it.
“I’ll be there,” Charlene assured.
Helena and Irma were as close as two peas in a pod. Naturally, when Helena’s birthday rolled around, everyone expected Irma to show up.
But Irma was older than Helena, and in their local tradition, it was considered improper for someone older to celebrate the birthday of someone younger with a big bash.
For the past few years, Helena’s birthdays had been low–key affairs, just a simple family dinner, nothing more.
And throughout these years, Thorne hadn’t once made it to celebrate with Helena.
At first, he’d excuse himself citing a busy schedule.
But Charlene knew better. Even when he had the time, he’d rather hang out with friends than attend the family gathering.
Yet, every year as Helena’s birthday drew near, Charlene found herself asking Thorne if he could find the time to come with her to the Ross family home for her grandmother’s birthday celebration, holding onto a sliver of hope. But she was always met with disappointment.
This year, however, Charlene had resolved not to ask Thorne.
Yet, this year was significant as it marked her grandmother’s milestone birthday. Vernon had invited numerous business associates to the Ross family celebration, and despite Charlene and Thorne’s rocky relationship – they hadn’t officially divorced yet – the longstanding friendship between the two grandmothers meant an invitation was extended to the Henderson family as well.
Whether the Hendersons chose to attend was another matter.
Charlene had initially planned to return to her own place that evening.
But upon reflection, she decided to head back to Thorne’s mansion instead.
Arriving back, Charlene realized Thorne and Jasmine weren’t home yet.
Irma, having some matters to attend to, had gone back to the old family estate for a few days.
After setting down her purse, Charlene headed for the shower.
Half an hour later, just as she finished drying off, she heard the sound of a car pulling up outside.
Predictably, Thorne and Jasmine had returned.
Charlene sat down to dry her hair, her mind wandering, completely indifferent.
Jasmine burst into the room first, throwing her arms around Charlene. “Mommy, we’re back!”
She smelled strongly of Vesta perfume.
Charlene responded coolly, turning off the hairdryer and caressing Jasmine’s face. “Have you taken your bath yet?”
“No, not yet,” Jasmine replied.
“It’s past ten, you should head to your room and take a bath. You’ve got school tomorrow.”
As Charlene spoke, Thorne entered the bedroom, their gazes briefly meeting. Charlene quickly looked away, focusing on her daughter who was tugging at her, pleading, “Then mommy, will you help me bathe?”
Sure, let me just finish drying my hair.”

Okay!” Jasmine, excited, ran off to her room to get ready for bed.
Thorne, seated across the room, finally spoke. “When did you get back?”
Not long ago,” Charlene replied, avoiding his gaze as she continued drying her hair.
Thorne didn’t press further, heading to the closet to get ready for his own shower.
That’s when Charlene remembered the important matter. She turned off the hairdryer, and before he could disappear into the bathroom, she pulled out an invitation from her purse and handed it to him. “My grandmother’s birthday is coming up. This is for your family.”
As Charlene got closer to give him the invitation, she realized that he, too, was wearing that distinct Vesta perfume.

The readers' comments on the novel: Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and Thorne)
Stewart and Charlene will the best match, both power players!...
Can't wait to read where Charlene will start another relationship... God for is she gets back with Thorne... She needs to be with York or Gaylord (to annoy vesta) or granger (to annoy Thorne)...
I know its ur story and u obviously have ur own plot line and all and have every right to build the story as u like but what writer provide isnt just entertainment, but they shape the narrative of young minds. So I would say that romanticing cheating is, or rather THORNE'S behaviour, wrong for all the reasons..give york a chance ..that will be way more satisfying...again all of this is just my point of view but if charlene and thorne get back together, its not the story im looking for...
Hey...please dont ever make Charlene and thorne get back together no matter what...he simply doesn't deserve it....no matter the reason or plot twist behind the way he treated his legally wedded wife....whether he actually slept with vesta or not....just his emotional cheating...not repecting his spouse....not caring enough to actually get to know the person his wife was....and actually distancing his child from her mother and encouraging her to bond with the mistress are all the biggest RED FLAGS... when a person enters a contract....he must uphold it no questions asked...its not like if ur partner isnt good enough, ur allowed to cheat..allowed to let a 3rd person in-between....if ur not satisfied with ur partner then u can get a divorce...whats the point of all the wealth, power and brilliance of mind when the ML cant even get his head around this simple fact...So, its fine it he regrets, but charlene shouldn't be with him in any case.....
Enough already. This novel is dragging slowly. Updated with 2 chapters only. REALLY!!! Whoever the author or authors of this novel why is there a delay in penning more chapters? Here’s my question. In reading the comments from others does their opinions matters and/or make a difference? Are comments being monitored? Or is it only a tool allowing readers to blow off steam?...
Long wait to just get an upload of a couple of chapters. Very little progress in the story if any at all! For heaven's sake the story is 453 chapters so far with nothing or little change from where the story began! Show commitment to us your readers and followers please!...
Hi..its my 1st ever time commenting on any story. But seriously....i dont mean to come as rude but are u seriously thinking about the stroy or losing ur grip on the plot and characters...not updating...no story development...no commitment towards ur readers...u just uploaded 2 chapters after god know how long and still nothing to give to the story..if u dont want to write or simply cant then please dont...
The updates are so slow that I forgot the story for some time and just remembered it and read 20 chapters. The chapters are short and the story development is like a snail. 451 chapters and Charlene still couldn't break her image in other's eyes or dealth some serious damage to Vesta and her trash father....
It would be better to say right away that there are 10 chap/month...
Just give us updates already...
